Hi everyone,
In an effort to not re-invent the wheel... I am hoping someone can steer me to a video or slide show that illustrates positive pressure flushing technique and perhaps also illustrates reflux when flushing is not done correctly. anyone?

Try bardaccess.com and look at the power PICC solo. There is a video there that is helpful.

long ago, I once found a nice caricature of the whole process on the B-D website. May not be there now however. This is all I found in a short search. I bet other manufacturers also have something . If you are looking to find a non-commercial based video, i suggest making one yourself with a good iPhone video recorder!
